Protective Efficacy of Phyllanthus amarus L against Radiation – Induced Chromosomal Damages in Onion Root Meristems

Protective Efficacy of Phyllanthus amarus L against Radiation – Induced Chromosomal Damages in Onion Root Meristems

The protective effect of Phyllanthus amarus L in the irradiated roots of onion was evaluated. The results were indicated that the Phyllanthus extract showed a radio modifier effect by reducing the frequency of aberrant cells in the meristematic cells exposed to gamma rays.
